Please pray for all affected by the bombings at the Boston Marathon today. At least 2 people are dead according to CNN, and many others critically or seriously injured. Eight children were among the injured. Thanks.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you. Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,
that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection,
implored your help or sought your intercession,
was left unaided.
Inspired with this confidence,
I fly to you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother;
to you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful.
O Mother of the Word Incarnate,
despise not my petitions,
but in your mercy hear and answer me.
This was a terrible and horrific thing that happened and our prayers for all are going up.
For all those affected by the bombing in Boston and for all the families, we pray to the Lord.
Lord, hear our prayers.
Eternal Father, I offer you the body, blood, soul and divinity of your dearly beloved son, our Lord Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.
For the sake of his sorrowful passion, have mercy on us and the whole world. Amen.
